FYI - I worked on 2 different #RealityTV shows in #Canada & after those lived work experiences - told everyone I could - don't agree to go on these shows. It's almost all scripted, not reality. Crews are forced to put pressure on voluntary participants - who rarely know WTF they're signing up for & producers exploit naivety. Don't chase easy fame/easy money - they both come at high personal costs. Don't agree to be traumatized on TV, for money. You'll regret it.

Canada, in March, passed a motion in parliament making tepid and uncertain commitment to recognize a Palestinian state. Now is the time for Canada to make good on that intention and follow the example of Norway, Ireland, and Spain by formally recognizing a Palestinian state.

Wondering today if the Senate would be able to reject Poilievre's proposed use of the notwithstanding clause by a future conservative govt.

I think they can definitely block a piece of legislation that has the nwc "pre-attached", like conservative & francofacist provincial govts have been doing. Or a piece of legislation that "invokes" it after a court decision.

Is the govt able to "invoke" the nwc outside of legislation?
